Riverside is Platte County’s southern-most city and lies directly across the river from downtown Kansas City. Although initially settled in the 1840’s, the city of Riverside was formally incorporated in 1951. It has a thriving economy, close-knit community, and is part of the award-winning Park Hill School District. Of special interest to new residents is Riverside’s no property, real estate or earnings tax status. Home to Argosy Casino Hotel & Spa, Riverside is one of Platte County’s fastest growing cities. While in Riverside, make sure you stop in at the Corner Café, one of Metro Kansas City’s favorite eateries, and enjoy their “down-home” style cooking and wide variety of baked-on-site pies.
